[QUOTE="ademily87, post: 12650138, member: 134689"] Hello all!! I just have a few questions. My best friend has a beautiful champagne pitbull that he's had about a year now, named Hercules. He's his stud dog for breeding, so he's lived in a pen pretty much his whole life. He was approximately 10 months old when my friend got him, so I'd say he's about 2 years old. He's never been neglected and is/has been fed very good dog food his whole life. He's the sweetest dog I've ever met in my entire life. Very happy when you let him run around the yard. Well my friend is gonna let me take him home with me, cause he's such a good dog he doesn't want him to be an outside dog his whole life. I have two pits at home already that I trained since they were puppies of only a few months old that are very well behaved and intelligent. Hercules though...I've never had to train an "adult" dog. I went out yesterday and bought him a collar and leash. I put the collar on him, and that didn't bother him because he usually has one on. But I put on the leash, and he just laid down. Didn't want anything to do with it. I walked him around the block and practically had to bribe him the first half of the walk with Vienna sausages. He would do great walking right beside me for a few minutes and then he would just drop to the ground and lay down and not move. No noises, or animals, but randomly lay down. I dunno. He's not very responsive of his name either and doesn't exactly pay attention to you. He doesn't look at you much and kinda just does his own thing. My friend already tried to house break him, and gave up after only a few days. Mistake on my friends part though, he doesn't have a kennel so he just gave him free range of the house. Do any of you have experience training a strictly outside dog to a house dog? He's pretty much 2 years old, and has lived in a pen his whole life. He's very sweet, but doesn't seem very intelligent..not his fault though. He's never been taught any different. Should I give this pup a chance? My main concern is the house breaking a dog that's used to peeing and pooping whenever and wherever he wants. Am I gonna need to train him like you would a puppy, or is there a whole other level of techniques to train an adult dog?
